I also think they have the patio/terrace with the best view of any of the pubs on the port. And it's very well maintained and clean. As far as service, that was just right too. We had the correct amount of attention - a fine balance between checking in but not hovering. Excellent food and drinks selection from appetizers & entrees to beer, wine and cocktails. We had a traditional Dutch appetizer board: frikendel, krokets and bitterballen with assorted sauces. Tasty fried snacks washed down with De Koning beer and Liefman's berry fruit kriek/lambic. Yummy or Lekker as the Dutch say. The bill came with lollipops that taste like marshmallows on the outside with a bit of salty licorice hidden inside. A nice contrast and a sweet free treat. All in all, a very enjoyable visit including the chat with the manager/owner (?), Rogier Nelisse. The only reason it's not 5 stars is because we didn't realize it was cash or Maestro only. We used up most of our cash today so presented a credit card. Not accepted. Luckily, we had enough Euros left or it would have been a long walk to the ATM. The Dutch are familiar with cash or Maestro only but America is becoming a cashless society so heads up Americans. Don't let the limited payment methods keep you away. And definitely enjoy that gorgeous patio and view.
Beautiful patio. Lots of ambiance. Best view of all the pubs in Oude Haven.
Enjoy your visit to Van Leeuwen Winebar Kitchen! We did.
Go on in!
Vegan kidney bean "burger", with tomato jam, aioli, and guacomole. All entrees served with green salad and French fries.

Authentic greek food, as you can see in a small menu that is dutch only (don't even have an english menu but that proves how authentic and local it is!). For the pitas, choose your meat, the standard lettuce tomato and onion and then the sauce of your choice. The gyro meat was fantastic! For 6 euros, if was a delicious sandwich that I will be back for. After ordering I realized there was a 9.5 euro option which was huge! Definitely way more value with the big gyro and it will for sure fill you up. Beyond the wraps there are a few other items to pick from, but gyros seemed to be the bulk of the orders. You can also buy greek market items that they sell since it's half a store and half a restaurant. With only about 10-15 tables, this place fills up fast! People were eating outside in the cold because of how popular it was during the week at 5pm. Variety of cafe items as well such as lattes that you can enjoy with your meal. Does seem to be a popular place with the locals because I saw tons of delivery drivers come in and out throughout my short time there. Worth a visit for amazing greek food at a decent price.

Walked a long distance to this restaurant because it was rated number two on vegan cow in rotterdam (the yelp for vegan restaurants). We were extremely disappointed. First of all we asked for tapwater and they refused to give it to us. I am environmentally conscious and I will not support the use of bottled water in a country where tapwater is clean and safe. Being extremely health-conscious I asked multiple times regarding dishes whether they were fried or not. The waitress assured me that the Soya ribs were not fried but were baked. However they were actually Fried with lots of oil dripping off of them. We ordered Vietnamese noodles, which came in dry and bland. We considered sending it back but decided to be nice and to make it more palatable asking for soy sauce and sweet and sour sauce. Without notifying us in advance they added three euros to the bill for the sweet-and-sour sauce. If the noodles were properly seasoned we would not have had to request the additional sweet and sour sauce. When we brought this up, they replied with "that's the price". We ended up paying €50 for two people for a very unsatisfactory meal. We will not be returning. Ik vind het niet erg om te betalen voor een dure maaltijd van hoge kwaliteit, maar ik stel het niet op prijs om vernield te worden voor een ondermaatse maaltijd. Liep een lange afstand naar dit restaurant omdat het als nummer twee werd beoordeeld op veganistische koe (de yelp vijand veganistische restaurants). We waren enorm teleurgesteld. Allereerst vroegen we om kraanwater en ze weigerden het ons te geven. Ik ben milieubewust en ik zal het gebruik van flessenwater in een land waar kraanwater schoon en veilig is, niet steunen. Omdat ik extreem gezondheidsbewust was, vroeg ik meerdere keren over gerechten of ze gefrituurd waren of niet. De serveerster verzekerde me dat de sojaribben niet gebakken waren maar gebakken. Maar ze waren eigenlijk gebakken met veel olie die eraf droop. We bestelden Vietnamese noedels, die droog en flauw kwamen. We hebben overwogen om het terug te sturen, maar besloten aardig te zijn en het smakelijker te maken door om sojasaus en zoetzure saus te vragen. Zonder ons van tevoren op de hoogte te stellen, voegden ze drie euro toe aan de rekening voor de zoetzure saus. Als de noedels goed waren gekruid, hadden we niet om de extra zoetzure saus hoeven vragen. Toen we dit ter sprake brachten, antwoordden ze met "dat is de prijs". We betaalden uiteindelijk € 50 voor twee personen voor een zeer onbevredigende maaltijd. We zullen niet terugkeren.

Due to the damage the city endured during the World War, they had to start anew. That's not to say there are no historic areas remaining. Quite the opposite, and one of the architectural gems is the Hotel New York, which served as the original headquarters for Holland America Line, which celebrates its 150th Anniversary as the oldest cruise line. The current hotel and restaurant also function as a small museum that you can wander through on the main floor. It is done subtly and tastefully, and takes you on a journey from a long time ago. I wanted to see this historic building and have lunch before continuing on my exploration of Rotterdam. Service was relaxed and friendly and professional. I opted for the tasty Steak Sandwich on my server's recommendation. Along with a beer, it was perfect.

There are lots of tables and comfortable Adirondack chairs out front as well as large cement blocks right by the water to sit on. There is plenty of space for large groups, as well as cozy areas for a twosome. Inside, FFF is basically a warehouse with food stalls, long tables, a brewery and bookstore. One of the most popular things to order here is called a Plank, which is basically a wooden board that they fill with meats, cheeses, tomatensoep, and other bites from a few of the vendors there. You can order them from the stand at the entrance. We stopped in once on a Sunday during brunch time, and almost everyone had a Plank of their own. Our absolute favorite part of this place is that we can enjoy the best cider in the world here; Lightship Cider. Do yourself a favor and get one. It's crisp, fresh, and flavorful. I'm obsessed.

Other than how beautifully it's plated, the peppers taste amazing! It's sooooo fresh. Burgers were on the table, Thai chicken curry, and my sous-vide ribs - amazing.

Fresh of the train, I started walking and just happened to sit down at this restaurant for lunch. I would LOVE to come back for dinner after this great lunch experience. Restaurant Bazar (attached to a Hotel under the same name), was truly a great experience. The menu is comprised of Middle Eastern and North African cuisine. While I sat outside for lunch, I peeked in the building to admire the lighting (which truly should be viewed at night when it seems like an oasis in the street). I ordered the Dürüm (grilled minced beef and lamb kebab with piyaz, rolled in lawash and a yoghurt sauce with moesir). The menu was super competitively priced and was truly delicious. I went for lunch when it was less busy, but with the beautiful lighting at night, I would recommend coming here for dinner. Regardless, this was definitely a great stop on my trip to Rotterdam.
